About

Waxxx & Glow presents itself as a Redwood City salon for facials and waxing. The salon's view is that skincare belongs in a regular self-care routine rather than being a luxury, and each appointment starts with a consultation about the client's goals and what they have tried before. Treatments are planned around that conversation, and the salon says it does not overbook or rush its services.

Facial menus cover classic facials, dermaplaning, chemical peels, an acne facial designed for teens, a back facial for body acne, clogged pores and rough texture, a vajacial for sensitive skin in the intimate area with ingrown hair extraction, and Hydrafacial treatments. The Hydrafacial uses Vortex-Fusion technology to deliver serums and moisturizers into the skin, and a longer 90-minute version adds extra extraction and massage time. First-time guests can book a Hydrafacial Special, and a PROMO facial is listed at $39. Chemical peels use acids chosen for each concern, and the salon recommends planning peels in a series rather than as a one-off. Enzyme peels come in several formulas for different skin types, including a 15% Pumpkin Orange peel that the salon labels as its strongest and not for sensitive skin.

Waxing at the salon is performed with warm wax on the face, body, intimate areas and hands. Men can book waxing for a select group of zones: the back, chest, arms, legs, ears, nose and eyebrows. Brazilian waxing is not available to men. Before a waxing appointment, clients are asked to grow their hair to at least a quarter inch and to skip exfoliating the day before. The salon describes its waxing prices as affordable and says the service leaves no residue behind.

Brows and lashes are a large part of the menu. Brow lamination lifts and sets brow hairs for a fuller shape, takes about 30 to 45 minutes, and is adjusted during the session based on how the hair responds. Brow tinting uses professional dyes, including vegetable-based formulas for sensitive skin, and colors are mixed on the spot to match the client's hair and skin tone. Lash services include lash strips, eyelash tinting, lash perming, which the business presents as a gentler option than extensions or strip lashes, and a lash lift and tint. Makeup is offered for all occasions, and a makeup training session is also available.

Booking is done through an online platform. The salon says every tool is sanitized and never reused between clients, and that its team includes licensed estheticians.

Each visit begins with a consultation about the client's goals and past experiences. The salon says it works at a measured pace, does not overbook and does not rush treatments.

The salon describes its setting as welcoming and relaxing.
